August 17: Home vs Bayern Munich (DFL-Supercup)
Just three days after their Bundesliga opener against Eintracht Frankfurt, Borussia Dortmund will take on Bayern Munich in the DFL-Supercup.
This season marks the start of new eras at both Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich. And the DFL-Supercup clash could give us a glimpse of what to expect from the two teams that will be looking to fight for the Bundesliga title this season.
Both teams had several representatives at the European Championships. So Marco Rose and Julian Nagelsmann could look to use this game to build their players’ match fitness.
But games between these two teams are almost always highly entertaining affairs. And with a trophy on the line, expect the DFL-Supercup match to be no different.
